+layout: website-normal
+menu_parent: index.md
+---
+
+The following section gives a quick summary of the main Brooklyn concepts
you will encounter in Getting Started. For later investigation of these
concepts see [The Theory Behind
Brookln]({{site.path.website}}/learnmore/theory.html), and the detailed
description in [Brooklyn Concepts]({{site.path.guide}}/concepts/).
+
+Having examined the concepts below, get started by **[installing and
launching](running.html)** Brooklyn.
+
+
+***Deployment and Management*** Brooklyn is built for agile deployment of
applications across cloud and other targets, and real-time autonomic
management. "Autonomics" is the concept of components looking after themselves
where possible (self-healing, self-optimizing, etc).

"Autonomic Computing" I think is the official recognised term (it's the
name of the Wikipedia page at least!)
